Applied with water I'm guessing?

I hate fake tattoos real tattoos is where it's at. I paid like 50 dollars to get this tattooed on my arm and it didn't hurt a bit when that needle went into my skin. c:. I recommend any of you that are 18+ to get a real tattoo i turned 18 last month and got this real tattoo on my 18th birthday but my birthday turned out to be like friday the 13th bad luck day for me.

My above comment was a joke, but did you really pay $50 for that?...

Because IMO it doesn't look good. Barely distinguishable as a grim reaper, for about 5 minutes I thought I was staring at some kind of flame with torn muscle. And not just because the image is fuzzy.

I mean the art itself is fine I guess, though not my preferred subject matter, and the contour (esp. in the clothing) is really heavy/misplaced and makes it hard to distinguish..
I just don't think a human arm is the place for this.
It looks huge and ugly, way too dark against your light skin.

I guess this doesn't matter since it's coming from me so you probably think it's biased, but I'm just letting you know from a person who knows a lot about aesthetics, you're doin' it wrong.

As anyone else who would get a tattoo they would probably go to a professional like i did. There was tons of grim reaper tattoos i saw in the book at the place i got it done at, and this one was the one i liked the most and it had a little extra i can get done later on if i want. Thanks for your input anyways, i chose the arm because i think it would have been the least painful place to get my first tattoo.

I meant that it shouldn't really be on a human at all. It'd be cool for like a decal for a car, poster, shirt, or band album cover or something, it just seems misplaced on someone's skin.

But the colors he used are red and black. I think it looks good..

The colours aren't the problem; I didn't say anything at all about the colours did I?

Like i said, thanks for the input but i and everyone else i shown it to likes it. But yes, thanks Maggie. c:
